What are the scenic spots in Morocco?

The scenery in Morocco is very beautiful. Today, Bian Xiao will tell you about the scenic spots here. Pay attention to them when you go. Now let's take a look at some related strategies and see if there are any you like.

Usually Morocco's trip starts from Casablanca and goes around clockwise or counterclockwise. I chose the counter-clockwise route because I thought I could rest by the Atlantic for two days after I went to the Sahara desert.

Regarding the choice of transportation mode for this trip, I didn't choose go on road trip. First, most Moroccan cars are manual gears; Second, there is a risk of being stopped by the traffic police when traveling abroad (there are tens of millions of reasons for fines). I mainly take trains and buses. As for taxis, there seems to be no interest in taking a taxi here. And the price of taking a taxi is more than double. So ... Poverty makes me bow.

The first-class car in Morocco had seats and the second-class car was robbed. If you are traveling for a long distance (like me), I suggest you take the first class directly.

stay

Cities in Morocco are divided into old cities and new cities. When considering accommodation, you can choose according to the purpose of your trip. The main reason is that the new city has a good environment, many hotels and convenient leisure and holiday.

Living in the old city is the most convenient way to explore Moroccan customs. Generally, traditional houses are mostly located in the old city, but generally, because of the narrow and uneven roads, cars can't drive in and it's inconvenient to drag luggage back and forth.

So I had a smart choice, staying in a hotel not far from the old city and walking to the old city.

Accommodation is nothing more than hotels and homestays. Most homestays in Morocco are called Riad. These houses are Huizhou quadrangle buildings with central gardens, and most of them have three floors. Every raid is buried deep in Yongxiang, the ancient city of Medina, and is often just an inconspicuous door. However, after entering, the interior decoration is exquisite and elegant, as if entering the fairy tale world of Arabian Nights.

It is strongly recommended that Marrakech and Fez must stay in Riad in the old city. Believe me, this will be a surprise for your trip to Morocco.

online communication

There are two ways to surf the Internet in Morocco. First rent WIFI eggs in China at a price of 50 RMB/day. For well-known reasons, I bought a local calling card. It will be more convenient to surf the internet or make a phone call. There are three local operating companies in Morocco, namely INWI, ORANGE and Telecom Morocco (also my choice). The signal of this company is also good, and you can also receive WeChat in the desert.

Focus! After the SIM card is installed, don't throw away the package. It has a password on it. If your phone is restarted, you must enter the PIN code to contact the operator again.

Casablanca

Hassan II Mosque: It is the third largest mosque in the Islamic world and the most modern mosque in the world. The magnificent building is the first scenic spot in Casa, where you can take beautiful silhouettes and shoot night scenes from the sea at night.

Opening hours: Saturday to Thursday, 9- 12, 15- 16, Friday, 9- 1 1,16, ticket price/

Rick's Cafe: Out of affection for Casablanca, it's just a restaurant built after the movie became famous. It's a little old and expensive.

Marrakech

Marrakech is a Berber language, which means "the hometown of God". Located at the foot of Aratus Mountain, it is known as the "Pearl of the South". It is famous for its leather industry.

Majorelle Garden: a beautiful plant garden covering an area of 12 hectares. It was built during the French colonial period in the 1920s and 1930s, with trees and changeable scenery.

Address: Yves Saint Laurent Street, Marrakech

Opening hours: 8:00- 17:30. Admission is 70 dirhams/person.

JeffnaSquare: The famous sleepless square, with a history of nearly a thousand years, has everything in the market, mainly shopping and eating. Snail soup and all kinds of fruit juices are very good, and there will be local Moroccan objects, but pay attention to traveling together, and there are more thieves.

Address: Gemayel -Fna Square, Marrakech

Basia Palace: The palace is hidden in the small streets of the old city of Marrakech. Built in19th century, it is the only open and well-preserved palace in Morocco. It is a perfect specimen of Moroccan decorative art in the19th century. In this luxurious and exquisite palace, you can feel the mystery and confusion of Arabian Nights.

Recommended restaurants: LeSalama (Moroccan food, western food), LeBlokk (western food with singing and dancing performances), AtayCafe-Food (Moroccan food).

Sahara desert (located in northern Africa)

Ayité Benhadu Village: The Only Place for Desert Ethnic Groups. It is the most representative ancient Berber village in Morocco and is known as the most beautiful ancient village in Morocco. There are many small shops in the village, selling Moroccan specialties, coarse literature and art, hot and fresh.

Merzuka is Morocco's entrance into the Sahara. There are big sand dunes and various campsites here. This is a good place to see the stars in the Sahara. It has the largest natural groundwater in Morocco and is part of the itinerary of many tourists visiting Morocco.

Fez

Fez, the ancient capital of Morocco, is the founding capital of the first dynasty in the history of North Africa and the first Islamic city. Divided into the old city and the new city, the old city is one of the largest typical medieval cities in the world. Walking among them, you will feel as if you are in the Arabian Nights.

Know the Blue Gate: the starting point of the two most important roads in the ancient city, so most tourists will choose to enter the ancient city of Fez from here. It is called the blue gate because the outside of the gate is covered with blue mosaic tiles, which is full of Islamic style. Inside is the ancient city hutong, which is easy to get lost and there are many thieves.

Medina: Arab residential area, entering through the blue gate of Buji Road. There are various handicrafts in it. It is highly recommended to buy calligraphy here. Yogurt is delicious, but there are many people during the day and it is easy to get lost. Going there in the morning will have different scenery.

Mausoleum of Melni Dynasty: The cemetery itself has nothing to see, but it is the best observation point to enjoy the panoramic view of Fez. The cemetery is located on a hill outside the city. It's still a little far to walk. A good place to watch the sunset by taxi from the old city, 5-7DH/ person.

Recommended restaurants: CafeClock (Moroccan cuisine, hidden storefront), MedinaCafe (near the Blue Gate, easy to find), ChezRachid (near the Blue Gate, recommended chicken powder), Great Wall Restaurant (Chinese food, address is RueArabieSaoudite, Morocco, you can directly tell the driver Sofia Hotel).

Chevshaan

Residents of Chev Shawan have heard that blue can repel mosquitoes, so people here have turned their homes into a blue ocean.

Medina in Shesha Bay: a blue fairy tale town built on the mountain. Cats are everywhere. Full of literary flavor. Girls can wear beautiful blue skirts and shawls to take pictures. It is strongly recommended to go early in the morning. I want to buy paint here.

Spanish Mosque: The commanding height of Chev Shawan is a good place to watch sunsets and night scenes, but the mosque itself is not open.

Restaurant recommendation: Pizza shop Datura (Italian food) and Sky City (Chinese food).

Usually Morocco's trip starts from Casablanca and goes around clockwise or counterclockwise. I chose the counter-clockwise route because I thought I could rest by the Atlantic for two days after I went to the Sahara desert.

Regarding the choice of transportation mode for this trip, I didn't choose go on road trip.

The first-class car in Morocco had seats and the second-class car was robbed. If you are traveling for a long distance (like me), I suggest you take the first class directly.

Tangier

Tangier city is built by the mountains and the sea, with beautiful weather and pleasant climate. White houses, green Shan Ye and blue sea water complement each other. It is a beautiful seaside mountain city, known as "the summer capital of Morocco".

Hercules cave: also known as Hercules cave or African cave, it is naturally formed by waves hitting rocks for thousands of years. The entrance is similar to a map of Africa. It is suggested to go at sunset and watch the sunset in the Atlantic Ocean.

Recommended restaurant: Baba Cafe (well-known, William Burroughs, author of Naked Lunch, paul bowles, American writer, etc. ), LaPaella restaurant (Spanish food, address is Kathir, Tangier 12 Street, seafood eating)

Aisla

Aisila is a seaside town, mainly in white tones, featuring graffiti walls.

AislaMedina: It's a small Medina, and a mural festival is held every year. This is a very friendly town, and you can take a walk by the sea. Graffiti walls and old city walls are suitable for taking pictures.

security issue

This grand strategy sharing ends here. Here, I also want to talk about Morocco's security.

Generally speaking, Moroccan society is relatively stable, with few terrorist attacks and riots. In some places where tourists are concentrated, you can also see police patrolling nearby. I think the law and order is not bad.

It is necessary to have a normal sense of security in Morocco, but if you always wear protective or colored glasses to complete the journey, your natural vision will be reduced.
